Rising fuel costs squeeze Hong Kong drivers

ایندھن کی بڑھتی قیمتوں نے ہانگ کانگ کے ڈرائیوروں کو مشکل میں ڈال دیا

बढ़ती ईंधन कीमतों से हांगकांग के ड्राइवरों पर दबाव बढ़ा

Rising fuel costs squeeze Hong Kong drivers

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Rising fuel prices are putting heavy pressure on Hong Kong's commercial drivers, a new survey of 770 drivers suggests.
  • Almost 99 percent said their monthly fuel spending rose after a government subsidy ended in June, and more than a quarter said they now pay at least HK$5,000 extra a month.
  • Many said they work longer hours, dip into savings or cut back on maintenance to stay on the road.
  • 770 ڈرائیوروں کے ایک نئے سروے کے مطابق ایندھن کی بڑھتی قیمتیں ہانگ کانگ کے کمرشل ڈرائیوروں پر بھاری دباؤ ڈال رہی ہیں۔ تقریباً 99 فیصد نے کہا کہ جون میں حکومتی سبسڈی ختم ہونے کے بعد ان کا ماہانہ ایندھن کا خرچ بڑھ گیا، اور ایک چوتھائی سے زیادہ نے کہا کہ اب وہ ماہانہ کم از کم 5,000 ہانگ کانگ ڈالر زیادہ ادا کرتے ہیں۔ کئی نے کہا کہ وہ سڑک پر رہنے کے لیے زیادہ گھنٹے کام کرتے ہیں، بچت استعمال کرتے ہیں یا مرمت پر خرچ کم کرتے ہیں۔ ڈرائیور حکومت سے مزید مدد مانگ رہے ہیں، جبکہ مشرق وسطیٰ کی جنگ کے باعث تیل کی قیمتیں بلند ہیں اور برینٹ خام تیل حال ہی میں تقریباً 111 سے 115 امریکی ڈالر فی بیرل پر رہا ہے۔
  • 770 ड्राइवरों के एक नए सर्वेक्षण के अनुसार बढ़ती ईंधन कीमतें हांगकांग के वाणिज्यिक ड्राइवरों पर भारी दबाव डाल रही हैं। लगभग 99 प्रतिशत ने कहा कि जून में सरकारी सब्सिडी समाप्त होने के बाद उनका मासिक ईंधन खर्च बढ़ गया, और एक चौथाई से अधिक ने कहा कि अब वे महीने में कम से कम 5,000 हांगकांग डॉलर अधिक देते हैं। कई ने कहा कि वे सड़क पर बने रहने के लिए अधिक घंटे काम करते हैं, बचत का उपयोग करते हैं या रखरखाव पर खर्च कम करते हैं। ड्राइवर सरकार से अधिक सहायता मांग रहे हैं, जबकि मध्य पूर्व युद्ध के कारण तेल की कीमतें ऊंची हैं और ब्रेंट कच्चा तेल हाल ही में लगभग 111 से 115 अमेरिकी डॉलर प्रति बैरल पर रहा है।

Almost 99 percent said their monthly fuel spending rose after a government subsidy ended in June, and more than a quarter said they now pay at least HK$5,000 extra a month. Many said they work longer hours, dip into savings or cut back on maintenance to stay on the road. Drivers are calling for more government support, while oil prices have stayed high amid the Middle East war, with Brent crude recently trading between about US$111 and US$115 a barrel.
